“If you look closely, you can see a human walking around the base of the rocket. Each Raptor rocket engine produces twice as much thrust as all 4 engines on a 747. There are 33 Raptor engines powering the Starship rocket booster. https://t.co/VHLGlJWtoJ”

“Since your handle is “Whole Mars”, perhaps this lengthy reply is apropos: Getting the cost per ton to the surface of Mars low enough that humanity has the resources to make life multiplanetary requires a roughly 1000X improvement in rocket & spacecraft technology. Recent US…”
“Rocket garden at Starbase. You can see this from the public highway. [@DimaZeniuk] SpaceX Starship rocket garden”
“At 5000 tons, Starship is the largest flying object ever made. Thrust is more than double the Saturn V moon rocket. It is the first spaceship design capable of making life multiplanetary. Goal of the next mission is to make it through the meteorically extreme heat of reentry.”
“Starship Super Heavy Rocket Booster (people for scale) https://t.co/XLRrE0kCZU”

“Starship Super Heavy Booster, the most powerful moving object ever made by far [@SpaceX] First 33-engine static fire for Super Heavy V3”
“Raptor V3 just achieved 350 bar chamber pressure (269 tons of thrust). Congrats to @SpaceX propulsion team! Starship Super Heavy Booster has 33 Raptors, so total thrust of 8877 tons or 19.5 million pounds. https://t.co/ZlskpCXUmu”
“Starship is the first rocket/spaceship capable of making life multiplanetary, which requires it to be both far more powerful and far more advanced than anything that came before. [@johnkrausphotos] Starship: Humans for scale. Flight 8 today. )”
“@Malcolmmarsman @flcnhvy No problem. We could program Starship to perform Swan Lake in the sky. Minimizing landing burn propellant mass is what’s hard.”
“So many spaceships will be born in the Starbase Gigabay [@DimaZeniuk] SpaceX is constructing a $250 million GigaBay at Starbase to accelerate Starship production The 700,000-square-foot facility is designed to build up to 1,000 rockets per year”
“Starship flight on Monday ~5pm CT [@SpaceX] Flight-proven Super Heavy booster moved to the pad at Starbase ahead of launch”
“RT @teslaownersSV: WHY STARSHIP NEEDS TO BE SO MASSIVE: ELON MUSK EXPLAINS THE SCALE FOR MARS Elon has repeatedly emphasized that Starship…”
“This talk is postponed until after the Starship Flight 9 launch tonight [@SpaceX] Watch an update from @elonmusk on SpaceX’s plan to make life multiplanetary https://x.com/i/broadcasts/1rmxPyOEBWXKN”
“Yes [@cb_doge] Starship is the first ever rocket design capable of making life multiplanetary. )”
“Why is Starship made of stainless steel? This article from 5 years ago explains the reasons. Worth noting that the ship would have failed on reentry if made of aluminum or carbon fiber, as they can’t take the heat. https://t.co/QVAtv74quq https://www.popularmechanics.com/space/rockets/a25953663/elon-musk-spacex-bfr-stainless-steel/”
“Yes, at massive volume. Maybe as high as 10,000 ships per year. [@iam_smx] SpaceX is going to produce Starships like they're Aeroplanes With a $250 million Gigabay at Starbase, the company is accelerating Starship production. The 700,000-square-foot facility is designed to manufacture up to 1,000 rockets per year.”
“@annerajb @highlyaaronic Orbital refilling is critical for high payload to moon or Mars. Initially just Starship to Starship, later dedicated tankers.”
“Starship test flight rocket just finished assembly at the @SpaceX Texas launch site. This is an actual picture, not a rendering. https://t.co/k1HkueoXaz”
“Travel anywhere on Earth (that’s willing to allow loud rockets) in half an hour or so at Mach 25! [@MarioNawfal] ELON WANTS TO REPLACE PLANES WITH ROCKETS SpaceX’s Starship could take you from New York to Sydney in under an hour. It skips jetlag by literally launching you into space and back down somewhere else. It’s like teleportation but with fire and Elon energy. Would you ditch”
“Starship is a planet-colonizer class rocket. The magnitude of that task makes every other space transport task trivial. [@ApoStructura] Starship HLS is going to have 135x the living volume of the Apollo LEM! Sci-fi shows from 10y ago imagined future landers would be ~10x larger than the LEM, but we’re skipping over an entire generation and going straight to giant multipurpose ships. SpaceX is 20 years ahead.”
“Making life multiplanetary [@SpaceX] The Road to Making Life Multiplanetary: an update from @elonmusk on SpaceX's plan to reach Mars”
“With Starship, humanity finally has a rocket design capable of making life multiplanetary”
“This is despite @SpaceX competitors increasing their launch rates. SpaceX is an anomaly in the matrix. Nothing can compare to a system designed to make life/consciousness multiplanetary. [@EvaFoxU] SpaceX will launch over 90% of all of Earth’s payload mass to orbit this year! 🤯 When Starship is launching at high rate, SpaceX will probably carry >99% of Earth’s payload mass to orbit!”
“Getting ready to launch Starship 💫 [@SpaceX] Super Heavy booster moved to the launch pad at Starbase ahead of Starship's tenth flight test”
“This is an accurate picture of orbital rocket launches so far this year. 90% Falcon with the massive @SpaceX Starship standing out very clearly. [@ApoStructura] All 258 rockets launched in 2025 so far, chronologically and at scale.”
“10 Earth-Mars transfer windows are needed to make Mars self-sustaining, ideally at least 20. 1/4 to 1/2 century. [@iam_smx] "Unless civilization collapses, SpaceX will make life multiplanetary." -Elon Musk )”
“@SpaceX For the first time ever, there is a rocket capable of establishing permanent bases on the moon and Mars”
“Raptor 3 has almost twice the thrust and much higher reliability than Raptor 1, despite costing about four times less! [@SpaceX] Raptor 3 is an unprecedented step forward in rocket engine design, which will help us increase Starship’s efficiency and the amount of mass Starship is able to deliver to space )”
